"Miller graduated from the University of Pennsylvania, where she studied English Literature and Art History. She went on to attend Tyler School of Art, and then received her 4-year certificate from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA). She worked as an art conservator’s assistant for over 10 years ultimately leaving to concentrate on developing her growing painting career, raising her family and teaching. (Miller is married to furniture designer Paul Downs, and they have three sons.) She earned her MFA from PAFA in 2014 and now teaches at various colleges and art centers in Philadelphia and its suburbs."
